I agree with scifinut. There are a number of meds out there for ADHD, and what works well for one kid won't necessarily work for another. It gets more complicated when you add other meds to the mix. The parent needs to talk to their pediatrician or whoever prescribed the current meds. If the reactions are that bad, they shouldn't wait for an appointment but call their doctor.

It sounds like they are doing what they need to, however, make sure to let them know you are not a doctor and can't give out medication information. If they need a second opinion they should seek another doctor.
